figured ide post this here instead of bug forum since ive heard some people get this, others it worked fine. Looking for more input here.
So basically I am dark elf, lotta them are KoS to me in Halas but I still managed to buy the potion, turn it in(spawning Arantir, Nothing on the wiki or other wiz guides indicates any dialogue needs to be typed to him, some say you have to hail him.) I was indifferent to Arantir,
//but heres from giving Camin the 1000 plat:
[Fri Nov 20 17:29:54 2015] Camin says, 'Good, good, you show a willingness to learn of this with your offer. What I can tell you is that Solusek Ro had four followers who had shown exceptional aptitude in the arts of wizardry. Solusek Ro himself tutored them. He considered them to be like his own children. I know of one who still exists. He goes by the name of Arantir Karondor. He used to specialize in the storing of magic into physical objects. Arantir has been hiding for many, many years and will most assuredly be going by another name, so keep your eyes open. Anyway, be off, I need to continue my research. Return to me if you ever find Arantir Karondor.'
[Fri Nov 20 17:29:54 2015] Your faction standing with TrueSpirit got better.
[Fri Nov 20 17:29:54 2015] You gain experience!!
[Fri Nov 20 17:29:56 2015] Camin looks your way apprehensively -- he appears to be quite formidable.
//buying charged potion
[Fri Nov 20 18:11:38 2015] You give 892 platinum 4 gold 9 silver 9 copper to Dargon.
//handing charged potion to camin, receiving chargeless
[Fri Nov 20 18:19:09 2015] Camin says, 'Very interesting... I've seen this work before. Yes, yes! It's the work of Arantir Karondor! Give this back to the person you got it from. Maybe he will have a clue to Arantir's location.'

//chargeless potion INTO dargon, spawning Arantir
Fri Nov 20 18:27:01 2015] Dargon says, 'So, I've been discovered! You must know Camin - he is one of the only people who could have recognized my work. I have worked very hard to mask my presence here.'

After hailing him, I got no ring to go to chalice with, I gave it one more attempt(like I said, im a dark elf, level 55. I had a TL box up each time I did this cause the mobs whoop my ass near by).
Upon going back to Arantir, I tried What Gnome? I wish to hear your story(this got some lore asking about a gnome he forgot the name of, i assume Kandir or whatever in BB)
So basically, WTF happened? Why was I not given a ring by Arantir after turning the chargeless potion in? Every epic guide indicates you are given the ring without issue.
Should I pull Dargon to the zoneline next time and have a friend keep him there for me so I can deal with it without aggro? Or is this just flat out broken? I know people who have got the spare gear 1-2 weeks ago, I read some old bug reports about similar issues too but nothing that tells me what went wrong. I was told by many people that as LONG as im indiff to arantir i should get the ring, and none of them recall having to say anything to arantir other then just plain hailing him
extra text, though I think the story part is further in post chalice return?

We did not know what the others' items were, but we realized that was for our own safety. Each one of us, after receiving the item, began to plot against Solusek Ro. Each of us believed we had enough power to dominate Norrath. Solusek Ro saw this and at the time we needed our powers most, he stripped us of them. Now I know two of the other wizards by name. One was called Sylen Tyrn, the other's name was Demunir Scry. The last wizard was a gnome, but I can't think of his name.'
